Luke Peters

Front-End Engineer & Entrepreneur

Meet Luke, Front-End Engineer

Introduction

If I must have a title then let it be Front-End Engineer. Though I enjoy the entire web app creation process, I am especially passionate about crafting seamless, elegant and highly usable front-end experiences.

My specific skills are in HTML, CSS, JavaScript, jQuery, Angular.js, Ajax, JSON, PHP, MySQL, CodeIgniter and WordPress.

I also love Sass with Compass, CSS grid frameworks and Sublime Text 2.

Blog Launching Soon...

I am currently building myself a little blogging system. I know I could use WordPress or dozens of other free blogging systems, but I want to build my own custom one. It's more fun that way!
